The avatar on the forums is a small image that helps to identify and individualize you to other users. I have an image that I drew (just the Rabbit part) for my username "Rabbit Farmer" (as I had a lot of VW Rabbits).

The max. image size are 180 pixels and 180 pixels while staying below 8200 KB. If you have any issues with uploading an image because it is too large either due to dimensions or file size, send me an e-mail at SCCVermont (at) aol.com and I can help you develop/design, edit, or resize an image for your avatar.

Instructions (based on the Dirty 2.0 theme/ see image below):
1. Select "User Control Panel" at the top of the forums
2. Select the "Profile" tab
3. Select "Edit Avatar"
4. Click on the "Browse" button to upload an image from your computer
4a. Or... if you already have an avatar/image posted on the internet, you can type in the complete address for that image (including http:// in front of the www.).
5. Click on Submit
